What role does rice play in Latin American foods?
The people of tropical Latin America have an inordinate fondness for rice only matched by Asians. Their plates are dominated by a mountain of rice which serves as a flavor carrier for all other elements of the meal. We blend the rice with the meat, the vegetables and the salad before taking a single spoonful to our mouths. One of Latin Americas favorite feast foods is rice and chicken and of course everyone has their own version of rice puddingboth are comfort foods everyone craves.
